osho - love, freedome, aloneness - the koan of relationships

Bidding starts at $5. Brand new.

In this provocative book, Osho develops a contemporary vision of love without the bondage of morality / moral codes. Freedom and love are inseparable in Osho's vision. But aloneness is also part of it. For Osho, aloneness is not contrary to being loved, but it is rather complementary. Love, Freedom, Aloneness - this is the trinity for individual fulfillment in a modern society.

We are born alone, we live alone, and we die alone. Aloneness is our very nature, but we are not aware of it. Because we are not aware of it, we remain strangers to ourselves, and instead of seeing our aloneness as a tremendous beauty and bliss, silence and peace, at-easeness with existence, we misunderstand it as loneliness.
Loneliness is a misunderstood aloneness. Once you misunderstand your aloneness as loneliness, the whole context changes. Aloneness has a beauty and grandeur, a positivity; loneliness is poor, negative, dark, dismal.
